about dougie

Dougie is the bass player and backing vocalist of british pop-rock band McFly. He has co-writer credits on many of McFly's tracks, including the lead writer credit on their 2007 number one single "Transylvania". Poynter also wrote an unrecorded track called Silence Is A Scary Sound, which is featured as a live recording on their third studio album Motion In The Ocean. Poynter was 15 when he joined the band. Because of his young age, Dougie and the other members of McFly hold the record for the youngest band to ever have a debut album go straight to number one, a record previously held by The Beatles. McFly are currently recording their 6th studio album... keep reading.

He may only be 19-years-old but Harry Styles has already got an eye for art.

And not wanting to miss out on an opportunity to pick up a few pieces for his already well-adorned bachelor pad the One Direction singer headed down to the Loughran Gallery Pop-Up party on Wednesday.

However while Harry might have enjoyed perusing the art, fellow gallery goers may have been a little distracted – as the youngster wasted no time in creating the ultimate boyband line-up alongside members of McFly and Matt Willis.

It seems the pop-up’s collection, which was held at The Gallery in London in trendy East London, was quite a draw for boybands old and new.

I added to the gallery some pics of Dougie, Danny and Tom at the Loughran Gallery Pop-Up – Opening Party, they where there to support Lara at the inaugural day of her exposition. Matt Willis and Harry Styles from One Direction were there with the boys too. BTW Tom is wearing Saint Kidd..looking good on him:)

We love a good spotted here at heat and if you’re a fan of McFly then you may be extra excited to know that over the next few days you have a good chance of bumping into them if you if you visit Loughran Gallery’s pop up Shoreditch venue.
That’s because the boy’s handsome bassist Dougie Poynter’s girlfriend Lara Carew-Jones will be exhibiting some of her work there from April 4th to the 7th.

The famous foursome – Dougie and bandmates Tom Fletcher, Danny Jones and Harry Judd – are all expected to come along to show their support.

Art work by Damian Hirst, Harland Miller and Marc Quinn will also be showcased at the trendy gallery.

Dougie Poynter could well be the third member of McFly to tie the knot after admitting that he’s ready to settle down with long-term girlfriend Lara Carew-Jones.

The 25-year old bassist began dating Jones after they were introduced by Harry Judd in 2011, and he believes marriage could soon be on the cards because the talented artist is ‘a kindred spirit.’

“Yeah. We’re twin flames, a step up from soulmates. My girlfriend is obsessed with the idea,” he tells New! Magazine. “You can find a soulmate, but that’s the easy part. Soulmates are there to help you find your twin flame.”

Bandmate Harry married violinist Izzy Johnston wed in December, and the hunky McFly drummer believes it’s only a matter of time before Dougie and close pal Lara settle down.

“I’ve known her way longer than Dougie has,” he said. “He was in love with Lara before he even met her, just from seeing pictures and the way I described her. I played Cupid – and they’re the perfect match. Their story makes me think things like that are fate, that it’s meant to be.”

While Dougie was on hand to see both Harry and McFly guitarist Tom Fletcher tie the knot – he admits he’ll be pulling out all the stops to ensure his big day is nothing like theirs.

“I’ve got an idea but it’s not what everybody is expecting,” he recently told the magazine. “What can I reveal without giving away too much? There will be a petting zoo, for sure. But nowhere to wash your hand…

“Basically everyone else’s wedding has been the best day of their lives and guests had an amazing time. I can’t top that, so I’ll do the opposite and create the worst.”
